More flies

Weather still not too great but still some flies are out and adding to the lists. Two new Empids yesterday - Empis tessellata and E.stercorea. Another E.tessellata was found in the pines this morning. Downlooker snipeflies are also around all over the place.

I also found a new ladybird for the reserve yesterday - a Cream Spot

Also this morning the first sight of 6 brand new Mute Swans, though I didn't hava camera which could capture them at the other side of the pond
